Nurses in England will walk out on Monday for the first time in their history, in a dispute over pay. Health leaders have warned that the Strike will have a 'very significant impact' on patients. The walkout is different from the RCN's previous strikes, which have protected cancer care. The escalated action differs from the RCN's previous strikes, when cancer care was protected. The Royal College of Nursing has agreed to provide more nurses for emergency departments and intensive care wards, but no exemptions have been made for cancer services, meaning staff from those wards will walk out for the first time in the union's history.
